Last year, before I took long service leave and when I was still travelling up and down #theBruce to work each day, I made a concerted effort to detour the 15 minutes from campus to go to the beach--either early in the morning or late in the afternoon. Very restorative.
I decided to do that again today, hopefully in the hope that I will continue to do so. I took the proper cam. I've never got around to photographing the remnants of the Dicky, a shipwreck from 1893. I read recently it was going to be removed. I had visions of capturing it in the colours of the setting sun.
Let's face it. I had visions of it being much larger than it actually is nowadays. Nonetheless, I thought it opportune to practice slo-mo water shots, or different focal length, shutter speeds, ISO...and so on and so forth.
Before I knew it, there were about 150 pics...oh my.
A small selection:

I'll have to head back again, and again. It will help with the work day.
